    The DNC could have passed ballot and electoral reform under Obama when they had good majorities in both the house an senate, but they will not be able to in the foreseeable future (because they likely will not have strong majorities in both chambers for a very long time). I do agree that they probably wouldn’t, even if they could, unless the party changes drastically.

    I do have (a tiny amount of) hope that “progressives” can gradually change the party. The Republican party has changed quite a bit over the last few decades; neocon under Bush, Tea Party under Obama, and now MAGA. So, it’s definitely possible to change a party.

      DNC was sued over the Bernie Sanders 2016 politicial era. DNC is considered a corporation.

      Justice Democrats were the “progressives” elected to change the Democrates, if you follow how they vote and talking points changed over the years, the party changed them not the other way around.

        Why Marianne & RFK Jr. Can’t Win

        Because the former still won’t apologize for saying diseases were all in your head during the AIDS epidemic, and the latter compared COVID safety measures with Nazi Germany? RFK Jr is a certified antivaxxer as well.

        Tell me, do these two need to earn votes as well, or does that only apply to Biden?

          The video is much more than these two, the lawyers themselves even explain why they don’t like or would vote for any of them.

          Any politician needs to earn the vote, and should be highly criticized instead of defended.

          Many of us ex-Bernie supporters learn that the hard way, even if we have to learn it multiple times over until we fully understand US politics.
